Overmantel mirror - Wood

Elegant Napoléon III-era mirror in carved and gilded wood, bearing a dynamic form characteristic of the Louis XV or Rocaille style, highly sought after under the Second Empire. The frame is distinguished by the quality of its carving in solid wood, ornate with sinuous moldings, volutes and counter-volutes of acanthus. It is crowned by a superb carved pediment featuring a stylized shell and finishes at the bottom with small curved console feet.
